1. Whip up the chocolate pudding per the box instructions. Chill for at least 5-10 minutes in the fridge.

2. Then dump the pudding into your pie shell and smooth out.

3. Press the mini marshmallows gently into the top of the pudding.

4. If you have a kitchen torch, then slightly torch the tops of the marshmallows. If you don't, turn on the broiler and place the pie under it for a minute or so. The marshmallows should be slightly tinged - not melted.
